Housing Authority Of Cheraw

Housing Authority Of Cheraw is a municipal housing authority operating as a U.S. local government entity, headquartered in Cheraw, South Carolina, and functioning as a recipient of federal housing grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The organization receives formula-based operating and capital grants under two primary HUD programs and operates as a child entity of The Housing Authority Of Florence.

Housing Authority Of Cheraw's federal footprint is entirely grant-funded and concentrated in two HUD programs managed by the Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization is a recipient (not a contractor or subcontractor) on Public Housing Capital Fund grants (CFDA 14.872) and Public Housing Operating Fund grants (CFDA 14.850). Recent awards include a $928,868 formula capital grant awarded April 1, 2026, with completion March 31, 2030, supporting modernization, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, and emergency repairs to public housing facilities serving low-income Cheraw residents; a $511,924 operating fund formula grant effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032, covering day-to-day operations, maintenance, anti-crime activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and administrative expenses; and an earlier capital grant awarded May 6, 2024, with completion May 5, 2028. The organization also received a project grant under the Jobs-Plus Pilot Initiative (issued June 1, 2023, with completion May 31, 2026) to support employment and economic opportunity programming for public housing residents.

All 46 awards in the source portfolio are prime recipient grants (100% prime, zero sub-awards) distributed across the Public and Indian Housing Office (45 awards) and the Assistant Secretary for Policy Development and Research (1 award). Combined obligated dollars total $29 million. Activity has remained modest and steady — two awards per year in 2024, 2025, and 2026 to date — with two awards facing ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months. The organization operates within the HUD formula-grant structure characteristic of public housing authorities nationwide; awards are not competitively bid but allocated based on HUD's calculation of the authority's funding eligibility using metrics such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs, with permitted uses defined in 24 CFR Part 905 and aligned to the Housing Authority's 5-Year Action Plan.
